One of the largest of the Northern pueblos, Santo Domingo is between Santa Fe and Albuquerque. The pottery produced there is distinguished by its cream slip base and dark black geometric designs, with particular attention paid to the negative spaces. The local clay is quite elastic and lends itself easily to large forms. This piece presents the hallmarks of an elegant and solid figure, rolled-out rim, small neck and gracefully tapered bottom.

Resistant to the pressures of fashion, the Zia design vocabulary has changed little in over a hundred years. These decorative compositions often consist of a mix of geometric forms, rainbow bands (shown here encircling the neck), floral designs and references to bird imagery. Note the abstracted feather design repeated within several circles around the jar.

Focusing more on design motifs and less on symmetry of form, a Zuni jar often combines lyrical figures with geometric abstractions. This jar depicts a distinctive Zuni design, a painting of a deer with a heart-line: a red arrow of life or breath that extends from its mouth to its chest.

Characteristic features of Zuni pottery are: areas of parallel lines (hatching), stylized birds, and a large rosette. The line break, which is the space left by the incomplete circular painted border that separates the upper and lower sections of the jar, is called by the Zuni onane, or “road.” It is thought to represent the life of the pottery painter herself, and must be left unfinished. It may also refer to the sipapu, or mythic place of emergence from the underworld. Traditionally it is the first painted line applied to the vessel.

For years, Indigenous activists have led efforts to reclaim the remains of their ancestors and sacred cultural objects currently housed in museums, universities, and other cultural institutions.
In 1990, U.S. federal law established the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) to facilitate this process. In December 2023, NAGPRA ruled that museums must obtain consent from lineal descendants, Tribes, and Native Hawaiian organizations before allowing any exhibition of, access to, or research on these objects.
MAG has removed works from display that are classified under the statute in compliance and in support of the repatriation of these items to their original caretakers, including this work.
Nampeyo's name and her descendants are cultural icons of Pueblo pottery. Belonging to the Hopi First Mesa pueblo, she learned to make pots at an early age. She is credited with the revival of Hopi pottery-making in the early 20th century, a result of her great skill and innovative adaptations of traditional forms and designs. The interior of this bowl is decorated with an image of a katsina, a supernatural being embodied by masked dancers of the pueblos.

Once living in what is now the Four Corners – where Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico meet - the Anasazi were the ancestors of modern Hopi, Zuni and other Pueblo peoples. Their accomplished forms were decorated with both polychrome designs and the black-on-white patterns seen here.
